Before getting a chance to go hands on with Metal Gear Online on one of the dozen Playstation 3s hooked up on in the booth, attendees had to attend an impromptu Metal Gear Online school. The booth handlers escorted the group, divided into two groups of six, into a back room where a woman dressed in camouflage short-shorts (a gun slyly tucked into the shorts at the small of her back) presented the game's controls to us using an overhead projector. Then she showed us a map and talked about what tactics to use in the upcoming battle, emphasizing the positions we should take up with the help of a long riding crop. Unfortunately, the whole thing was in Japanese, so I wasn't exactly a team player when the match started, but more on that later.
